Weiser keyway: F, FA (except Orbit) 33-085 F Orbit 33-086 F, FA Lever 33-087 B series Deadbolt 33-088 However I will note another commenter said he called and they are now discontinued 🤷♂️
The husband installed a Kwikset touchpad lock, (back door only) but all of our locks are keyed Schlage/Baldwin. DUH! Now I'm stuck with having two keys to unluck our back door. Great informative video... the husband says I'm stuck with the Kwikset since it took him too long to install it. Wish I'd seen your video sooner... but thank you anyway. *wink wink*
Can you tell me exactly what to order? I have a new deadbolt (keypad/fingerprint) that is keyed for Schlage and the rest of my locks are Defiant which I'm told are Kwikset keyed. Will the cylinder from my old deadbolt fit?
I've found too that the KIK cylinders do work in the B60 deadbolts, as long as the tailpieces stop horizontally. They don't necessarily have to stop at that 45 deg angle.
I have a Defiant lock which is keyed for a Schlage keyway. I'd like to convert it to a Kwikset but cannot find a cylinder plug that fits. Any recommendations?
You won't find that, you will just need to replace the entire deadbolt with the Kwikset keyed version (which most Defiant's are anyway) If it is a electronic lock, which it likely is with a Schlage keyway, then you will still need to replace the entire thing but consider upgrading to a better quality lock
Thanks Jason! I lease, and my landlord uses kwikset smartkey:( I've got a schlage b60 deadbolt that I can convert so he can still get in. You said the conversion plug fits the schlage cylinder. How do they get around the different spacing?
The incremental difference in kwikset and schlage pin to pin is. .006 the face of the cylinder could be used to make up the difference between the shoulder to the first cut not sure if this is how they do just how i would
Kwikset has a broader bottom on the bottoms of their pins, and broader cuts on the key to match. Their cuts are 0.064" wide. Schlage cuts on the other hand, have .031" wide flats. Using Schlage bottom pins on a Kwikset key, you have an added spacing tolerance of +-0.0165", which is just enough to work with a Kwikset key with the Schlage pin spacing as-is.
I've used these conversion cylinders for years, but now my supplier is telling me that Schlage discontinued making these WR cylinders to fit Schlage knobs and levers.
@@selock i compared them at homedepot inc anada here, the weiser levers have a more stiff lever, but the schalge one the lever wiggles more. does that matter?
Double cylinder gate latch smart key system . Asked flake if they had double sided cylinder gate latch . Had asked if they had reg kwikset , and said it was discontinued. So I took the smart one. Have had problems with screw bag mounting screws . Have any of you had this issue ?

Great video Jason, thanks for showing and explaining this 😊
Awesome, I've never used a conversion plug. Thanks for the video!
Thx for the very informative video.
Now I know... thanks again for sharing your knowledge...
Great video Jason

Pretty neat content .
I have a kwikset key and want to get a Schlage door knob lock.. can I rekey the Schlage lock to my kwikset key? Thank you for help!

Where do you get the plugs?
Do you have a link to someplace that sells the conversion cylinders? I’ve never seen one.

I've got a schlage b60 deadbolt that I can convert so he can still get in.

Where do you get them?
where you buy those cylinders
Is there a cap removal tool for Baldwin cylinders? I really hate the screw caps they use for their cylinders. I got to try and make my own I guess.
which brand is better?
Schlage. Weiser stopped exporting to the US

I won't install those horrible ones. Schlage B252 or nothing! It's expensive but as hard as gates are on the locks it's best
I know my father has an old conversion kit, but that's all 90's and older stuff.
Can you use Kwikset smart key with Weiser keys?
No. You can key Weiser locks to Kwikset but cannot key Kwikset locks to a Weiser key
So if I have a weiser keyway, I can take a kwikset key and rekey the weiser lock to use it?
@@wjkim310 yes
Junk! one good kick and the whole lock in the knob goes flying off
